Comments

There is evidence that the manager of this facility practices on-going monitoring to ensure compliance to the legislation. The staff were seen to get down to the children's level, sing songs at circle, read books to the children, take the children for outside play time, lead the children in hand washing, count children in transitions, encourage healthy eating and guide pro social interactions between children. There are many opportunities for all areas of development including, a water table, a light sensorial table, a dramatic play corner, puzzles, cognitive manipulatives and many displays of children's art were seen.

Immunization poster was provided. Thank you for your assistance with this inspection.
